CAUTION

Features of the WanderGuard®Universal Tester
The Universal Tester is a hand-held, battery-powered device used to test
WanderGuard door monitors and WanderGuard bracelets.
When using the tester to test bracelets, the tester will detect if a bracelet
is working properly, the individual ID number of the resident wearing
the bracelet and when the bracelet is reaching its “replace bracelet”
date.
The Universal Tester will indicate when it’s battery life is low. When
the battery power is low, “LO” will flash three times whenever a button
is pressed. When this happens, the Universal Tester needs to be replaced
immediately. The tester is guaranteed to operate for at least one year*. A
dimming display is also an indication that the battery is low and the
tester needs to be replaced.
The Universal Tester has an ambient light sensor built-in. When the
tester is used in low light conditions, it will automatically back-light the
LCD display.
Using the RECALL button will display the result of the last bracelet
test.

Testing Door Monitors
The Universal Tester will test all WanderGuard®door monitors except the
FirstQTM series. Test door monitors at least weekly on each shift with all
surrounding power devices turned on to maximize possible
electromagnetic interference. If using a PIR device, refer to the
instructions that are shipped with it.
To test a WanderGuard door monitor that has WanderGuard®System
Status Display installed:
1. Open the door(s).
2. Move to 3' in front of the middle of the door, or middle of doorway if
testing a double door system, and hold the tester at waist level.
3. Press the DOOR button. The LED above the button will turn on and
segments on the LCD display will animate indicating the tester is
transmitting. “??????” will be displayed on the System Status Display.
(A single button press activates the tester for 2 seconds, or the button
can be held down to transmit continuously.)
4. Repeat Steps 2 and 3, holding the tester at ankle, knee, and head level.
5. Move to the right side of the door and repeat Steps 2 through 4.
6. Move to the left side of the door and repeat Steps 2 through 4.
To test a WanderGuard door monitor WITHOUT a WanderGuard®
System Status Display installed:
1. Open the door(s).
2. Move to 3' in front of the middle of the door, or middle of doorway if
testing a double door system, and hold the tester at waist level.
3. Press the DOOR button. The LED above the button will turn on and
segments on the LCD display will animate indicating the tester is
transmitting. The alarm on the door monitor will sound. Reset the
alarm. (A single button press activates the tester for 2 seconds, or the
button can be held down to transmit continuously.)
4. Repeat Steps 2 and 3, holding the tester at ankle, knee, and head level.
5. Move to the right side of the door and repeat Steps 2 through 4.
6. Move to the left side of the door and repeat Steps 2 through 4.
If the alarm does not sound, make sure the door is open and the tester is
within 3' of the monitor. If the alarm still does not sound, contact Senior
Technologies’ Technical Service at 800-824-2996.

Testing Bracelets
“End of Service” feature
Bracelet Model 36000 has an “End of Service” feature. During routine
testing the Universal Tester will display when the bracelet is reaching
the end of its useful service. This lets you know it is time to replace the
bracelet BEFORE the bracelet becomes inoperable. Bracelets must be
tested daily. IMPORTANT: Failure to replace the bracelet “on time”
could result in injury to or the death of a person in your care.
To test a WanderGuard bracelet with ID capability
(Model number 36000):
1. Hold the Universal Tester within one foot of the bracelet.
2. Press the BRACELET button once. The LED above the button will
turn amber.
3. If the bracelet is still operational, the LED will turn green and the
ID number of the bracelet will be displayed.
4. If the bracelet has reached the End-of-Service phase, the LED will
flash red.
5. If the bracelet is not detected, the LED will flash red twice and
display “- - -”.
If the Universal Tester does not detect the bracelet:
• Move the tester closer to the bracelet.
• Hold the tester at a different orientation in relation to the bracelet.
• ‘Sweep’ the tester by the bracelet.
